So, I'm reading this new book that I can't put down!

Was still trying to figure out why I am such a terrible BLOGGER, when my son gives me this incredible book, BLOG: Understanding the Information Reformation That's Changing Your World (Nelson Books) by a great Christian author, Hugh Hewitt, who is a New York Times Best-selling author. It's fascinating! Has anybody read it? I'd love to hear from you. If you have a ministry, I'd highly recommend it. HAPPY LEAP YEAR DAY ON FEB 29TH!

February 2008
Special 20th Anniversary Edition



Celebrating 20 Years
in Ministry!


Dear BLOGGER,

"Oh taste and see that the Lord, our God, is good!"
- Psalm 34:8

Welcome to this special anniversary edition of our newsletter. My heart resounds with the psalmist's words! It has been 20 years now that I have followed my own life purpose, dedicated to helping others discover their life purpose. I have learned from the giants on whose shoulders we stand, have linked arms with my contemporaries, and have mentored countless clients, students, and friends, as they too, help others discover their life purpose.

To give you a little glimpse of the some of those years, I dug up some old photos. I got a good chuckle that some of them are a few hairstyles ago -- but hope you enjoy them!

Well, that was the past, and this is now. And, because this is National Coaching Week (Feb 3-9), this newsletter will fill you in on what I am doing right now; my coaching services, on-line book studies, the facilitation of 2-day life plans in my home, Life Purpose Coach tele-training classes...and more! I'm looking forward to serving you in 2008!

This past week, my son Andy told me I needed to "lighten up" my blog. Imagine! Here's my problem...I'm not quite sure how to do it...and I need your help! Will you meet me at my blog this week...I am looking forward to chatting with you there!

Thank you for taking a few moments to celebrate the past 20 years with me. God IS good!

God bless you,
Katie Brazelton

Character Makeover
Group Book Study


Is your Small Group looking to "switch things up" a bit? Well, here's an idea for you. Why not join me for an 8-week Character Makeover Group Book Study via tele-chat?

And if you don't belong to a Small Group, then grab a few of your girlfriends to go on this 8-week adventure with you. Each tele-session with me is 35-minutes, and once you are off the conference call, you can continue your discussion with your Small Group.

For registration forms and /or complete details,
just email: WomensInfo@LifePurposeCoachingCenters.com
and be sure to put "Character Makeover Group Book Study" in the subject line!

And don't forget...there are some great Character Makeover tools on my website. Check them out here...
